void-mklive/README.md
Juan RP 4ab914cdf7 mklive: multiple improvements and fixes.
- Does not need bash anymore, a POSIX shell is enough.
- Avoid installing base-system twice to generate the initramfs.
- Reconfigure some pkgs in the rootfs... otherwise some system users won't be created.
- Added -K opt to not remove builddir.
